Question

9^-5*9^-3 Rewrite using a single positive exponent plssss

Answer 1

`(1)/(9^(8))`

Explanation:

When multiplying two numbers with exponents with the same base, you simply add the two exponents together, even if they're negative:

`9^(-5)*9^(-3) =9^(-8)`

When a number has a negative exponent (
`x^(-2)`) it means that the number is equal to 1/that number (
`(1)/(x^(2))`)

`9^(-8)=(1)/(9^(8))`
